Operation Unblock - Help Malaysians get around filters and able to download again


Operation Unblock – Help Malaysians get around filters and able to download again.

NOTICE : This is not related to Anonymous / any others hacktivism group! – We are not going to attack this attack that , We have our OpUnblock to help all of you to get around the filters :)
  • See below for more guide & info! Sorry for the long grandma story
PROBLEM: Malaysia blocks filesharing sites.
GOAL: * Help Malaysians get around filters (http://bit.ly/kwMKVb)
            * Create media attention for the cause
            * Inform Malaysians of the existence of the op and invite them to join us
            * Make websites accessible again – either by disabling the filter or making the government disable it.
            * It’s just about giving the people back their freedom

We are not against copyright but we hate censorship and they are just merely FILE HOSTING sites for God’s sake.
It’s the account holders who share their links to pirated contents over the net to the public that they should be going after and DMCA is an act. it’s not an organization or a government agency. you cannot report to an act. you can report using DMCA as a tool (an act). Like for example: Kamu didapati bersalah di atas kanun keseksaan bla bla (an act).

Blocking websites is ILLEGAL, It is illegal due to a number of things:
- the websites are based outside malaysia, which is outside of Malaysia’s jurisdiction
- MCMC’s Internet Freedom guarantee
- UN declared that internet access is a universal human right (http://www.du.edu/korbel/hrhw/volumes/2004/best-2004.pdf )

Filesharing IS NOT ILLEGAL. Copying data is the technical backbone of the internet. If you retrieve a data from say a server in Mongolia, It will be sent AND copied to every server that it traverses to reach you. To truly block an illegal file, would mean to block every single possible node point across the world to you, which would mean TMNET/MAXIS/CELCOM/YES/DIGI/etc servers as well. Filesharing has been around since even before photostat machines were invented.


How about banning other storage sites such as Microsoft SkyDrive, Amazon Cloud, Apple’s iCloud?
Ban the use of emails with large inbox sizes because friends are sending me files and sharing their private content with me such as photo albums, work documents, etc. You dare claim that you have the right to see them too? On what basis? That’s over the line of individual privacy.

If your distribution doesn’t use Network Manager, your DNS settings are specified in /etc/resolv.conf.
Example: Changing DNS server settings on a Debian server
Edit /etc/resolv.conf:
sudo vi /etc/resolv.conf
If any nameserver lines appear, write down the IP addresses for future reference.
Replace the nameserver lines with, or add, the following lines:
nameserver

2. Set up mirrors of filesharing sites
    -> Use something like httrack/wget to set up a mirror of thepiratebay etc on some spare server space? Suggestions welcome. There is already http://malaysiabay.org/, mirror of TPB, just to let everyone know.

3. Set up alternatives
    Basically, set up your own filesharing sites. Make them as accessible as possible
    Multiple domains, multiple IPs, etc. Spread infomation about other file shairs

4. Download Now : http://bit.ly/dlnn
Plain and simple: DownloadNow is a service which allows you to download files from the most popular hosting websites, such as fileserve.com or megaupload.com. From this day on you do not need to have paid accounts on multiple hosting websites.

  3. Are you monetizing your premium file uploads?
    Did you know that AdscendMedia will pay you an average of $500 per 1,000 file downloads?
